La Mestiza
At La Mestiza | Antiguo Santiago de Chile, we bring together flavours from Chile, Brazil, Spain and Catalonia on a menu designed for discovering, sharing and enjoying. We keep some of the most cherished Chilean recipes from the former restaurant and combine them with Brazilian specialities, tapas and dishes from our local cuisine. A multicultural, homemade offering in Barcelona where you can find everything from empanadas and completos to picanha, tapas, meat dishes and combination plates.
Flavours of Chile that preserve our essence
Chilean cuisine still holds a very special place at La Mestiza. We wanted to keep some of the most representative and popular dishes among those who already knew the former Santiago de Chile, maintaining our connection with Barcelona’s Chilean community.
On our menu you’ll find specialities such as mini chorrillana, sopaipillas, pastel de choclo and Chilean empanadas, as well as different completos prepared with various ingredient combinations.
Some Chilean favourites

A hearty combination of chips, sautéed beef, caramelised onion, chorizo, sausage and fried eggs.

From Brazil to Spain, a menu for a culinary journey
